Upon arrival, Porter was faced with a storm system that set him back four days. “Fifteen years of travelling and filming trips and I don’t think I’ve ever been shut down like this before,” Porter explains, “It’s bound to happen sometime.”
After a soggy few days of camping, the weather finally broke and with the trail in perfect condition, Porter set out on a hike to the top.
